The Arsenal actor’s exaggerated expressions have often been used to create memes online. In 2013, Cage told The Guardian that he’s aware of the Internet sensation but doesn’t have the time to keep track of the content. “Oh my God. I just can’t keep up with that stuff,” Cage told the paper at the time. “The internet has developed this thing about me – and I’m not even a computer guy, you know? I don’t know why it is happening.
